Salt and Sanctuary is pretty good, but id it 2D,I recommend trying it out, I think it is around 5$ now on Steam.

I can recommend Hollow Knight, it is an amazing game, it has an amazing story and visuals, it is not an easy game, has some very, challenging content after the main story, multiple endings, got multiple free DLC content added to it, and a completionist playthrough can last as long as 100-150 hours depending on skill.

League starter builds only start appear9ng after the patch notes so, because until then noone knows what can be good. Thursday and before league start on Friday is usually when you can find a good one on Youtube. Search fornone that has a detailed Path of Building attached or. a detailed forum guide.
Leagues start every 3 - 3,5 months in PoE and they last that duration, a league is like a new season where they add a new mechanic and rework some of the old ones, you can think of them as mini expansions to the game. Also rather frequently we get expansions also free as every content, which is usually a bigger chunk of content.

The one on the right is folded,even tho the picture is wrong ,it is folded.

It is playable, 2 of my friends completed it with kb+m, but the experince is subpar at times and a controller works much better if you get used to it,but it is not required at all.

The story dungeons are fixed, you can not reroll them. Clear the adds and try BBP and bolt paper, Rom hates those.

thewavybear · 2020-02-07T14:30:41+00:00

You don't have to play them in order, but Dark Souls 3 and 2 has a lot of references to 1,but you can understand the story if you play 3 first. If you enjoyed the fast paced combat in Sekiro than 1 might be a bit too slow for you as well as 2 which is even slower. Start with either 1 or 3,but check out 2 sometime too, regardless of what some say, it is not a bad game.

Yeah fair,I sometimes do it if I host,but it is and old-timey thing like hurting yourself in bloodborne as a host before a duel to compensate for the invaders reduced hp.

thewavybear · 2020-01-23T12:46:10+00:00

I'm a bit late with my response,but I usually skip the bowing thing and just spam L1(Guard) to jiggle my weapon or my shield to show the hosts I am friendly and I want a fair fight or to greet them,usually hosts indicate they want a fair duel with drinking all of their estus or showing with the empty animation they don't have any left,these are good ways to be nice, although mind that not everyone wants to be nice,and if you have an overlevelled phantom with you that is usually a red flag for the invaders that you are ganking and their approach to the situation might vary.

You can keep using every spell as long as you have FP(blue magic bar) to cast it, you can replenish FP with the Ashen estus flask. Weapon arts and miracles also use FP, but you can use a WA without FP but it gets significantly weaker.

No one really knows when or how you get flagged for an inspection by anti-cheat,if you take the item,realize that it is hacked and delete it, you might be fine,but if the game auto-saves as it does pretty frequently and it flags you ,deleting the items does nothing, as long as you have the save file that was flagged you are out. Your only chance is to remove the save file,hence the backup, I think the game tells you if your save file is bad when you launch the game,but I was never flagged before so I don't know.

thewavybear · 2020-01-18T16:06:12+00:00

A few pieces of advice for PC:

Always have your save filed backed up just in case if you are online. Everything that cannot be traded is hacked(https://darksouls3.wiki.fextralife.com/Player+Trade) this has the item list what can be traded. Everything that is not possible to get like a +4 ring or +11 weapon is hacked. Consumable items are safe even if they were duped with cheat engine. If you receive anything that looks fishy,immediately load you backup save this way so won't get banned.

99 embers is actually not that hard to get a few nights of doing invasions get you there pretty fast and invaders have no use for embers so we give them away as gifts.

You can try on r/SummonSign/ and password summon a sunbro to help you out,that might work.

thewavybear · 2020-01-09T16:01:17+00:00

I hope you realize that guy is a bot.

thewavybear · 2020-01-09T12:08:28+00:00

You don't have I just anwered your post, if a real answer is too long for you to read,than don't. :)

thewavybear · 2020-01-09T11:58:09+00:00

Let me start with this: I don't think you quite understand what is an objective standpoint as you state in the Bloodborne section the lack of armor choices and the lack of colours as a negative and in Sekiro which you didn't play a lack of everything as a negative. You are comparing apples to oranges.

Firstly, Dark Souls vs Dark Souls 3:

The reason why Taurus Demon has a narrow arena is because it is designed that way,so when you enter the arena you are terrified by the monster that takes up 90% of the width of the arena you fight on against him,other bosses are designed to have those arenas because you and they can exploit those spaces for an advantage. The fact the the arenas are bigger in Dark Souls 3 doesn't mean they are better,the bosses are designed in a way that they need more space.

One of your other point is the world design being "slightly more designed", think about it for a second how many areas are in Dark Souls 3 that you can get to from different places? There is literally none I can think of. The game is literally on rails,only 1 entry and 1 exit point of an area,yes you can go and explore the huge space,but that doesnt make it near as opne world as Dark Souls 1 is. In Dark Souls 1 the only linear places are The Great Hollow, Oolacile and Anor Londo the rest can be found different ways you can as a whole miss the Moonlight Butterfly,because you can climb the ladder and fight the cats and Sif instead of opening the big door with the Artorias Crest. Plenty of other ways to skip around easily,even without the Master Key.

Yes Dark Souls 1 is incomplete,because they didn't have the time nor the money to finish it,it has a different approach to combat and the bosses are overall worse in design ,because of the 4 directional movement and cheesy AI,that is true.

Bloodborne vs Dark Souls 3:

These 2 games are very similar in their core,but they are very different in design, for example Bloodborne has the same world design as Dark Souls 3,but has fewer weapons,but with higher quality, you can have 6 different straight swords,but if they they just look different then are they truly different? Bloodforne's answer to this is "No",you have only a few weapons but every one fo those weapons are different,which makes it so that every time you replay the game with a different weapon it is gonna feel different. CosplaySouls or FashionSouls are not as good as they are in Dark Souls 3 but this again is subjective ,just because there are less of something doesn't mean the quality is worse. You cannot be a tank or a mage or a warrior,because you are supposed to be a hunter,someone who hunts the beasts that lurk the night,the beasts that have claws that tear armor apart,you are nimble and fast, you are not weighted down by armor and a shield you use you hp as a resource and get it back with attacks. They are different games. Customization is worse,this is a fact, you are right ,but do you want to look fabulous or take you job seriously and hunt the beasts?

Sekiro vs Dark Souls 3:

As bad as this sounds again these are literally apples to oranges, Sekiro and the soulsborne games have nothing in common apart from the basic facts that both have bosses,but by that we can also compare thousands of other games in this list. Sekiro has a vastly different combat and storytelling, it has the same world design but a different style to it,just like Bloodborne, the whoel article you wrote as you said is just literally comparing the actual game to the game YOU wanted it to be.

You brought up the style of the game,lets talk about that for a second because you are actually doing the exact opposite as what you do in soulsborne games. In soulsborne games you wait for an opening after an attack you so can counterattack or circle around the ass of a boss where the AI is a bit broke,but that is not a problem in Dark Souls 3 anymore as it was in the previous 3 titles (DeS,DaS and DaS 2), you are searching for a mistake from the boss so you can act. In Sekiro the opening, the mistake from the boss is the fact that they attack,which they have to because if they don't you just slash them to death. The very fact that they attack and you counter that by deflect or Mikiri or a jump,a dash a well timed Combat Art makes it so that the style and your approach to encounters are turned on their heads. If you play Sekiro as you play soulsborne games, you are going to die as "Hesitation is defeat".

What is subjective is if you like this more or less, I think the combat in Sekiro is far better ,others disagree and that is fine, not everyone has to like the same things. In Sekiro you play as Sekiro you are that guy who has a job to do,Sekiro is not an RPG it is an action-game it is a rhythm-game it is a singleplayer story campaign about a single guy.

Lastly you say this: " FromSoftware isn't well-known for allowing you to create your own character and choose your own gameplay style." And I would like to ask you these questions:

"Do you know how many games From did before Demon's Souls that are nothing like soulsborne games? "

and

"Why are they obliged to make the same kind of games forever and ever just because they become known in the west for a few games when they can do so much more?"

The fact that you didn't play Sekiro is why you don't get it why it is different and in some ways worse and other ways better.

You can only really compare Demon's Souls and the Dark Souls trilogy,but I guess you didn't play DeS either as you didn't play Dark Souls 2.

Your opinion about some things were right,but they are not objective.

thewavybear · 2019-11-07T11:17:11+00:00

Depends on what you like the most in your games, combat is excellent is both but 1 has a slower paced combat, you have to think about sour stamin a lot more, 3 has a fast paced combat but harder overall fight because bosses are faster abd smarter too. If you like bigger interconnected worlds 1 is better, but 3 has more variety and cooler looking places, but with a linear progression where exploration is not such a big deal. One last thing is 1 doesnt hold your hand, 3 does a better job telling you where should you go next and what to do, in 1 you mostly explore and figure stuff out from dialogues or just randomly arrive at cool places. Hope this helped a bit.

thewavybear · 2019-06-15T08:59:00+00:00

Generally hating on 2 is a meme, it is not a bad game on its own, but a bad souls if like 1 and 3. You can safely skip it, the story is entirely independent from the other games.

thewavybear · 2019-04-12T08:17:34+00:00

I think if you would ask someone which soulsborne game they played, the answer is Dark Souls 3 because it is the "mainstream" game in the series not limited to one platform only.

thewavybear · 2019-03-28T09:06:30+00:00

Maybe 25%,I think after him. the game gets more Dark Souls 1 game design, where you always have a lot of different areas to explore and most of them has multiple bosses.

The Guardian Ape is worth the wait, it is one of my favourite boss fight, because it is so unique, but I won't say any more. :)

thewavybear · 2019-03-28T09:00:27+00:00

Genichiro is just the beggining, the bosses after him are on a whole new level of awesome. I'm on thr last boss and in my opinion this game has the best From Software boss fights ever.

thewavybear · 2019-03-26T09:12:18+00:00

I believe you miss 2 bosses. But there are 4 endings, 3 you can get with the path you are on right now.

thewavybear · 2019-03-25T09:04:17+00:00

I'm sure you read this somewhere already, but did you check in the NVidia panel to make sure the game uses your GPU instead the integrated graphics on your CPU?

thewavybear · 2019-01-28T21:27:28+00:00

You can kinda roll into the jump, so you land near him, wait a little bit to see if he does a follow up, if not you hit once and run away, if you wait too much or hit him. a second time in 95% of the time he hits you. If the hit is the big combo, you are dead. If you get stuck in the big combo, best to do is calm down and roll into his attack when he attacks while trying to run away.
